No discussion of major plant nutrients is complete without the mention of carbon. In fact 40 to 50% of a plant’s dry weight matter is composed of carbon. This key macro element is fortunately easily supplied with a CO2 system, such as the small pressurized convenient disposable systems by Fluval. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a major nutrient taken in by plants during periods of illumination. CO2 is usually never present in aquariums at a level required by plants, it must be supplemented. The provision of CO2 is the single most important nutrient for aquatic plants that will both enable strong growth and outstanding condition.

The Fluval Pressurized CO2 Kits come complete with all the necessary tools needed to grow lush and vibrant aquarium plants. This disposable cartridge system is ideal for large planted aquariums (up to 190 L/50 US gal).

It sets up in just minutes and ensures a consistent stream of carbon dioxide for optimal health and greenery.
